Hi Ten2008 Yes, the READ, SETLL and SETGT can use the FileName or the RecordName, when the record is externally defined. I'm not sure what advantage there would be using the record name. Updates and writes must be to the record name. Phil

Hi,

If you have two logical files referencing to same Physical file then its a good practise that you rename the record format name in File Specifications and use them in C Specs using READ,SETLL and SETGT.

However , Phil’s explaination is also right.

Thanks
